Zay Flowers Aims for Greatness with Ravens

The Baltimore Ravens advanced to the conference championship game but fell short against the Kansas City Chiefs, losing by a touchdown. This season, the focus has shifted from quarterback Lamar Jackson's performance to the support he receives from his teammates. Jackson expressed confidence in his connection with wide receiver Zay Flowers, highlighting their chemistry developed over the past season. Flowers demonstrated his potential with a standout performance in the AFC Championship Game, recording five catches for 115 yards and a touchdown. Despite his success, Flowers faced personal challenges, including an alleged domestic violence incident that led to a police investigation earlier this year. Jackson, who has only had a 1,000-yard receiver once in the past six seasons, emphasized the importance of growth and improvement. Flowers echoed this sentiment, reflecting on his rookie season as a learning experience and expressing a desire to enhance his skills moving forward. Flowers, inspired by his father's work ethic as a widowed father of 14, aims to bring consistency and reliability to his game. He believes that his improved understanding of play dynamics will allow him to better support Jackson, especially in high-pressure situations. As Jackson has often carried the Ravens through the regular season, the team hopes that a stronger supporting cast will help them overcome past playoff disappointments and achieve greater success in the upcoming season.
